  • Goal: Load the modal view

  • Steps: open modal view with multiple elements in the header section of the component

  • Details: You can see that when the modal opens, the 3 text components seem to be spread out before quickly jumping back into place. This happens in editor and preview mode.

  • Screenshots: Elements seem to jump when the modal loads | Loom

Hello @Jesse_Senger Welcome to the Retool Community!

If you're using a container inside the module, switch its height setting from "Auto" to "Fixed." If not, please share additional screenshots or a video with the inspect tool enabled to help us better understand your issue.

Thanks that seems to work! But certainly thats a bug right? Because then I have to move every element inside the modal to fixed just to stop it from jumping around.

Hi @Jesse_Senger, could you please attach the JSON export of your app here or send it to me via a DM?

I tried reproducing this issue but the movement of the components is minimal:
